Foreign Affairs › Re: Israel Finally Takes Control Of US Government by budaatum: 9:21pm On Sep 20, 2025

Biodun556:
Take note, any US president that tries to go against Israel middle east plans would not complete his term in office.

I'd like to take note but I'd need some facts or evidence to take note of.

Got any evidence of a US president who went against Israel middle east plans who did not complete his term in office?

In fact, from what you've written, how did Obama oppose Israel's middle east plans and do two terms?

What if it was from a baber or a cut or from even the hospital.

And if he had not been poking around prior to getting infected?

That's different, since it wouldn't be his fault and he's not given me reason to not trust him.

I guess we can sue the hospital or kill the barber together.

UK is not like Nigeria.
No sentiment, no tribalism

Except we'd likely have compassion and not deport her till she finishes her education if she pays her schoolfees and delays with appeals.

No more working over stipulated hours for her though, so fees might struggle considering father's demise.

One minute he's wearing girl's clothes, the next minute he's wearing a ridiculous house hat on his head in the name of fashion?

Do you know he gets paid for wearing girl's clothes, and for wearing a ridiculous house hat on his head?

So what does a junkie mean to you sir?

A drug addict is a person with a compulsive habit or obsessive dependency on something.

Kindly provide evidence that makes you claim Will Smith's children are addicted to drugs.

We’re going to take him off the air so ABC cannot broadcast any more’ … He says: ‘We can do this the easy way, but we can do this the hard way.’ And I got to say, that’s right out of Goodfellas.

Saturnalia:
If Will Smith really felt proud of slapping Chris Rock, why then did he apologize to Chris Rock and everybody? It doesn’t make any sense.

All his kids whom Jada bore have turned to incurable junkies. Only Trey Smith looks sane, prolly because of the song (Just The Two of Us) he dedicated to him.

I do not think nor have I said, "Will Smith really felt proud of slapping Chris Rock". All the evidence shows Will Smith is very not proud of slapping Chris Rock, and that it cost him and he regrets it.

Kindly provide evidence for "All his kids whom Jada bore have turned to incurable junkies".

Each year, on 15 May, millions mark the Nakba, or catastrophe, which refers to the ethnic cleansing of Palestine by Zionist militias to make way for the creation of Israel in 1948.

In a premeditated military campaign, Zionist forces killed thousands of Palestinians, destroyed hundreds of villages and forcibly expelled 80 percent of the Palestinian population from their homeland.

After more than a year of relentless violence, the newly created State of Israel captured 78 percent of historic Palestine.

The remaining 22 percent, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, were occupied by Israel 19 years later and remain under Israeli military rule.

So it's okay for him to have been smacked...?

The G.I Joe joke on Jada wasn't offensive. And didn't merit a slap. Will, Jada and now Willow was/were/are just too sensitive about it.

It was an overreaction from will... I think he later admitted it.

It's too bad willow had to bring it up again... will wasn't standing up for anybody. He was only sucking up.

What a sucker!

No, its not okay for Chris Rock to be slapped, despite Will Smith, Jada's husband, feeling offended at his wife being insulted. It's however commendable that Jaden learnt from it that he "should always stand up for my woman no matter how big the stage is".

His father will also teach him the cost of slapping Chris Rock so Jaden can consider clearly if he needs to slap Chris Rock, and that lesson is a bonus.

A federal judge threw out President Donald Trump’s $15 billion lawsuit against The New York Times, calling it an undignified public relations exercise meant to “rage against an adversary” rather than present a well-reasoned legal case.

Yes japa if I can but those engineers are made already and not in the class of japa if u can. They left because they didn't want to settle for less. Dangote is small for them, he can't pay them

You insult those engineers by implying their engineering abilities fell on them like manna from heaven, when they in fact educated themselves to be in a class of japa because they would not settle for less and therefore put in the effort.

Basically, they were ambitious. And they likely started from 2+2 to be as good as they are, and wanted in Qatar where they are paid tons.

I found myself on the bathroom floor last night at about 22:23. Just prior at about 22:17, I was feeling like I'd felt sometime before, light headed, expecting, and the next thing like then, I was on the floor.

I must report that within my standing there and my engagement with the floor, there was nothing. As in, not a single thought, idea, or dream existed in my mind. It was like my brain switched off. And while I might seem precise for the times given, ±2 minutes please, for I was obviously not timing, and the time between could have been a second or more.

I am very well, thank you.

If Ladapo was Surgeon General in Nigeria, he'd do away with measures preventing typhoid and call it freedom to live, or not.

DeSantis and Florida Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo announced their plan to remove vaccine mandates statewide earlier this week.

Ladapo, who says he is for medical freedom, said Wednesday that the state's Department of Health would "do away with rules on vaccine mandates" and declared, "All of them. Every last one of them."

I watched fuel consumption on my uncles Rolls Royce Generator kill his sawmill business in the 70s. Wood cutting wasn't economically viable with it, except he had the biggest Jevo in Ibadan, so a decent monopoly on larger trunks when there was light. Still died eventually.

Nigeria seems to not realise the need for energy, which is what electricity is, and are therefore treating the country like a broken down car by the roadside.

Can't wait till we mechanic and fuel up someday such that when we say, "let there be light", our response is not, Nepa!

In this study, a child was offered a choice between one small but immediate reward, or two small rewards if they waited for a period of time. During this time, the researcher left the child in a room with a single marshmallow for about 15 minutes and then returned.

it is the same everywhere.. it is just that they use different phrase.
In America, when you work, they will tell you to slow down, the goal is to work smart not hard.

Sounds like work for a boss who would not progress and would stop progression. Thankfully, it's not slavery. One can quit and go get another boss.

If boss owned company and sold faster than you made he'd appreciate you not slowing down and working faster and would likely compensate you handsomely for it.

A lot of Nigerians who left are not coming back
Do not even kid yourself

Most Nigerians do come back. We must visit our families, see where we grew up and come show off to our friends how well we've made it. But if we do not come back, we do send revenue home that contributes to Nigeria's growth and development.

In fact, a new 'Nigerians coming back' in UK is being fueled by the Nigerian Schools Foundation, an umbrella organisation for school's alumni that provides avenues for giving back. Some alumni abroad have taken on the finances of their alma mata and fully fund teachers' salaries, while many have renovated and built infrastructure in their old schools.
